@CALNNC posted:Does the Lionel #8754 represent a loco the New Haven actually had? I have been searching various NH related sites, but have yet to find this particular loco. Any help or links would be appreciated.
That electric locomotive was designated as an EF-4 (electric freight) on the New Haven Railroad. Twelve of them were obtained in 1963 from the Norfolk & Western Railroad after electric operations ended on the Virginian Railway. They were successful on the New Haven Railroad. Your attached picture looks correct.
Here are some pictures of my MTH Premier New Haven EF-4 #303.
